    Mark I believe the opportunity for synergy for your rig with this piece is real and rare.

    Should you decide not to pursue please let me know.

    Hope it works out for you. Does this mean you may start wearing bib overalls and birkenstocks too? :confused:

    Cool! I hope you get it. You know, any old preamp isn't THE preamp if that makes any sense. A few months from now you'll forget how much it costs and will be left with only the sound. At least that has been my experience. Besides, you can always re-sell if something else catches your fancy. Isn't there a soup kitchen right down the street... :D

    Hey, and if that falls through you can always get one of these and do a Manley system!

    I had seen them before but always thought they were amplifiers until the other day.

    It's a hard thing when you stumble across a once-in-a-lifetime purchase like that. Shoot, if you've got the means, why not? It's a linestage, it'll last longer then any of us....
